Mount Vernon Printing Company

What Mount Vernon Printing Company does

Mount Vernon Printing Company is a full-service commercial printing operation founded in 1917, headquartered at 13201 Mid-Atlantic Blvd in Laurel, Maryland, and serving the Washington D.C.-Baltimore metropolitan area. The company operates as a union-certified commercial offset, web, and digital printer, offering marketing collateral, business communications, direct marketing, signage and displays, and mail production services to enterprise and mid-market customers across six verticals: business services (financial, insurance, legal, transportation and logistics), consumer and retail, education and nonprofit, food and restaurant, healthcare, and travel/hospitality/leisure.

The facility's technical stack is built around G7 Master color management certified by IDEAlliance, FSC chain-of-custody certification, SOC2+ with HiTrust security compliance for regulated data handling, 100% wind power energy offset, LEED Silver building certification (achieved May 2012), and EPA Green Power Partnership since 2009. Mount Vernon is a wholly-owned subsidiary of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (NYSE: RRD), the publicly traded marketing, packaging, print, and business services conglomerate that serves 92% of the Fortune 100. Through this parent relationship, Mount Vernon has access to RRD's broader platform portfolio, including Iridio (Unified Marketing Solutions), Williams Lea (tech-enabled business support), ConnectOne Storefront (online print/materials procurement), and Flex Mailer (direct marketing delivery).

Commercially, Mount Vernon operates an enterprise field sales model with quote-based pricing on individual print jobs, supported by RRD's broader marketing infrastructure (content marketing, case studies, webinars, and direct contact channels). Revenue mechanics are primarily transactional project-based print and mail production rather than recurring subscriptions. The value proposition centers on combining 100+ years of brand reputation, union craftsmanship, sustainability credentials, and security certifications into a customer-driven advisory service rather than a transactional print vendor relationship.

Emerging players

• Cimpress (Vistaprint parent): Mass-customization platform for print and marketing products. While Mount Vernon focuses on regional B2B commercial offset/web/digital print, Cimpress represents the digital, on-demand, web-to-print disruptor competing for the same small-to-mid-market print buyers.

Direct peers

• Service Graphics: Commercial printing company offering offset, digital, and large-format solutions. Comparable in scope and customer mix to Mount Vernon, particularly in serving enterprise marketing and brand collateral needs.
• Walsworth Publishing: Privately held, family-owned commercial printer specializing in yearbooks, books, and commercial print with sustainability and certification credentials. Comparable regional/national commercial printing footprint with multi-vertical reach similar to Mount Vernon.
• The John Roberts Company: Mid-size commercial printing company providing offset, digital, and large-format printing with direct-mail capabilities. Comparable full-service commercial print model targeting enterprise and agency clients in regional U.S. markets.
• Taylor Corporation: Privately held full-service commercial and digital printing company serving enterprise customers across multiple verticals. Closely comparable to Mount Vernon in offering offset, digital, and integrated print solutions to regulated and brand-sensitive enterprise clients.

Broad incumbents

• Deluxe Corporation: Established provider of printing and business services including checks, marketing solutions, and financial print. Comparable to Mount Vernon in serving regulated B2B verticals (financial services, healthcare) with high-security printing and mail production.
• LSC Communications: Major U.S. commercial printer (formerly part of RR Donnelley) offering traditional offset and digital print, magazine and book manufacturing, and direct mail. Directly comparable in print process technology and enterprise B2B customer mix.
• Quad/Graphics: Large publicly traded commercial printer offering offset, digital, and integrated marketing services across the U.S. Like Mount Vernon, Quad provides full-service commercial printing, but operates at national scale with broader capabilities and direct competition for enterprise print contracts.

Others

• Iridio (RRD platform): RRD's unified marketing solutions platform for campaign management and integrated services. Adjacent rather than directly competitive—extends the marketing-services value chain that Mount Vernon's regional print services plug into for enterprise customers.
• Williams Lea (RRD subsidiary): Sister RRD company offering tech-enabled business support and document services to enterprise clients. Adjacent peer through shared RRD parent, competing and collaborating with Mount Vernon on integrated print and business service contracts.
